Where should I start..
Chinese New Year this year is the same as always. Went to relative's houses for visiting and recieved lots of hong baos! Gambled with small amounts for the fun of it too.
The past week has been quite good. Luckily the teachers are still in good mood, so there hasn't been much homework. However, next week is full of tests. SS & History test tomorrow, Chemistry test on Wednesday, English test on Thursday and A Maths test on Friday. What the hell man..
Studying History right now, the Treaty of Versailles quite interesting la. Germany had to take all the blame! Poor Germany.
That 'NO PORK' video in my previous post has been deleted in youtube for some reason Sorry to those who want to view it.
I found the video from another person who posted it. Here it is.
'No porku here! No pork at all.' Warning again. it's a little racist. This video is just for laughs, so those of you who will get offended by racism or religious offending, please dont click that play button.

A Week with my China Buddy
What a busy but fulfilling week. Hosted my China counterpart Si Ren Zhe for the whole of this week. We followed them after school to places of interests in Singapore without paying a single cent!
On Monday, Sentosa.
Tuesday, Singapore River Cruise from Clarke Quay to Esplanade & shopping at Suntec City+Marina Square.
Wednesday, Malay Heritage Centre and shopping @ Mustafa.
Thursday, Singapore Discovery Centre.
And Friday, he followed me to NCC training. After that, we went to Thai Village Restaurant at Changi village for a farewell dinner. Surprisingly, Miss Tan Hwee Pin came too. All the teachers and students who were involved in this Overseas Exchange programme from the 4 different schools ( Ngee Ann, Tanjong Katong & Zhonghua + Northeast Yucai Foreign Language school, Shenyang China ) came for this dinner. It was a buffet style dinner for the students (we sat outside of the restaurant), but restaurant style for the teachers and principals(they sat inside).
And today, the most interesting day. We got to take our buddies out to anywhere we wanted. All of us took them to Escape theme park in Down Town East. There weren't much people there, so we need not queue for the rides. They had lots of fun there & I helped my buddy win 4 big soft toys. (He was a little dissapointed because the soft toys were made in China. HAHA) At 2pm we made our way to Chinatown. I brought my buddy to OG to buy a shirt and a bag. In the evening, I brought him to my grandma's house for steamboat dinner, because all my relatives were there too.
Everyone in the Exchange programme went to the Airport to send the Shenyang students off. Hopefully when I'm older, I can go visit him in Shenyang. I can say that this Overseas Exchange Programme has been a great success & a very enriching one. We got to learn each other's different cultures of two different nations.
This Exchange Programme has been an experience I'll never ever forget. I encourage all the Sec 2s and 3s this year to participate in this Shenyang Exchange Programme (In September), & I guarantee that you won't be disappointed.
Oh! and one more thing! I think Mr Lee M.C will be very famous among the Shenyang students. They find him very funny and "passionate" in teaching A Maths. My buddy video-ed him doing his funny actions without his permission and Mr Lee was very angry when he found out (After my buddy had filmed for 25mins -.-)
I wish Si Ren Zhe a smooth journey back home to Shenyang.

I'll be damn busy next week, as my China buddy, Si Ren Zhe is coming to Singapore. I participated in a 10 day Overseas Educational Exchange Programme with Northeast Yucai Foreign Language School in Shenyang, China last year from 31 August to 9 September. So now its my turn to host him when he comes to Zhonghua tomorrow. Need to follow them after school on their sight-seeing tour around Singapore from Mon-Fri.
Whats more is that there are 3 common tests next week too. I don't know how I'm gonna pass those tests la.
Its a few more hours before the ASEAN Football Championship final clash between Singapore and Thailand in Bangkok at the Supachalasai Stadium. After wednesday's controversial first-leg final, Singapore now carries a 2-1 lead to Bangkok for the second leg. Singapore have shown an all-round improvement and ability to clearly be at the top of the ASEAN region for the following years. Sadly for Singapore, Indra Sahdan will not be fit to play as he is still nursing a muscle pull on his right leg.
Hopefully Singapore will be able to contain the Thais on their flanks as Suchao Nutnum is on the right flank, while Sutee Suksomkit is on the opposite flank, which is a threat to Singapore as both of the Thai players have been extremely impressive in the tournament.
GO LIONS!
